Ingredient Notes

Ensure your prosciutto is thinly sliced. I prefer using free-range eggs, but any quality egg works well. Opt for a strong-tasting, smoked mozzarella and fresh vine tomatoes to maximize flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. First, heat oil in a pan and throw in the chopped tomatoes.
  2. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the prosciutto to the pan and cook until crispy.
  4. Crack the eggs directly into the pan, stirring continuously to scramble them into the mixture.
  5. Finally, remove from the heat.
  6. Evenly distribute the mix down the center of each tortilla, add generous slices of mozzarella, roll up and serve.

Things I’ve Learned

For best results, avoid adding salt to the eggs before they’re cooked – this can toughen them. Warm your tortilla wraps slightly before you start, so they are flexible and less likely to tear.

FAQs

Q: Can I use bacon instead of prosciutto?

A: Absolutely, just cook until crispy. How can I make this vegetarian or vegan

Q: You can substitute scrambled tofu for eggs, and find plant-based alternatives for prosciutto and mozzarella. Can I make these the night before?

A: Yes. Simply warm them up in the oven when you’re ready to eat. They make a great quick breakfast or snack. What if I don’t like mozzarella
